First things first:
I have been on Couchsurfing for a few years but was using a joint profile with my friend when I did most of my Couchsurfing on my gap year - so all the personal references I have actually surfed with

I am 22, studied English Literature at Manchester spent my gap year on a six month long trip around Europe with my friend Agata and our dog Douglas!
We are fun, spontaneous and slightly mad people, always up for a good laugh and happy to help when we can. I will try to entertain you with stories from our trip!

I am naturally very sleepy but hate being unproductive so I can fit into a mix of situations whether you like to go out and party like crazy or just sit and chill inside - Im happy either way.
I also love to have a good adventure, hitchhiking, spontaneous trips, random activities you name it! I'm very active once I wake up!

PHILOSOPHY:
Things always work out in the end
Try not to panic unless you actually have to (the moment before you need to do something)

HATES:
Waking up
Beetroot

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people who actually have experience of living in the places I am only visiting. I like to experience a place through other people's perception of it, it becomes a more interesting trip and one that is unique to others
